Wakulla Book Review: Seventh Dimension - The Door, Book One, A Young Adult Fantasy, by Lorilyn Roberts

SEVENTH DIMENSION - THE DOOR, A YOUNG ADULT FANTASY




The Door is an excellent book. The story began well with the young girl getting into trouble. But I stopped when the talking animals entered the scene. This is not the kind of story I like to read. I let the book sit for two days before I gave it another try. I picked up where I left off and quickly remembered why I had set it down. But suddenly, the story changed and became alive.

I became enthralled with the story and the characters. The people and the animals had such depth to their personalities that I was truly amazed. But being able to see Jesus through their eyes was what really hit home with me. How easily the animals recognized Jesus as the king, and how difficult it is for the people who see him as king was precious and eye-opening.

Very thought provoking and very entertaining at the same time. If you are a fan of fantasy books or not, I recommend this one. One of the best books I've read that could open the Gospel of Jesus to those who might not listen otherwise. I look forward to the next book.

 I want to personally thank all the men who are reviewing the books written by JOHN 3:16 AUTHORS. I am thankful that we are able to bless them and appreciate the encouragement given to us by their reviews. 

Their insights and comments mean a lot. Steve said I (Lorilyn Roberts) could visit the prison and I hope to do that sometime in the near future. I ultimately look forward to the day when we are free in the Lord's presence to worship together our Risen King!

Each WEEK (usually on Tuesday), we are posting reviews from Wakulla Correctional inmates of John 3:16 books. 





Inmates are loving the new books from John 3:16 authors. Chaplain Steve Fox is adding the new books to the prison library in this initiative to "change lives to ensure a safer Florida."

Wakulla Book Review: "The Right Person, Montgomery Lake High School, Book 1," by Stacy A. Padula



"The Right Person" is a story about a high school freshman named Chris Dunkin, who, along with most of his friends, has been pulled into the party life where drugs, alcohol, and popularity seem to be all that matters, until he meets a girl who seems to be different. He feels drawn to her, but doesn't figure out what drew him to her until their lives take a reverse role. That it was the life of Christ in her that was drawing Chris. 

To everyone's amazement, Chris, the class partier, turns his life over to Jesus Christ and everyone witnesses a dramatic change in him. 

The author's purpose is to clearly show the awesome and amazing power God will have in transforming the life of anyone who repents and turns his life over to him. Regardless of one's past. 

The book covers many themes dealing with teen peer pressures of drugs, alcohol, popularity, friendship, and even depression. 

I loved the Biblical teachings where a teen can understand them in today's examples.

John 3:16 Book Book Review - Treasures of Darkness by Trish Jenkins

Treasures of Darkness by Trish Jenkins




This book is my journey, made up of my prison letters, private journal entries of things I couldn't put in letters, and hindsight commentary. I didn't know I was writing a book when I wrote. I just knew I had to record everything, including how I felt and my prayers. I also knew that if my faith had any substance, this was the place it would work. God did not disappoint!

Review: 
All I can say is: Wow! My husband and I were missionaries on foreign soil many years ago and I’ve wondered how I would deal with being imprisoned. I would hope that I could walk in some of the love, forgiveness, and grace exhibited throughout these pages. We are coming into a time when many in the body of Messiah are finding themselves in similar positions. Anyone who is passionate for Jesus needs to read this book! This book is NOT for cowards (Rev 21:8).
